30 September 2014 - Nostalgia Ain't What It Used To Be ? lots of old and lovely folk and blues tunes

Hi all

Well as I was away last week and hence, thus and therefore there was no 'What's in the Post?' I thought I'd dust down and play a load of old and beautiful tunes from my archives at the back of my library of folk and blues.  Some seriously old and crackly tunes and some that ought to get more airplay than they do at present.  But, as I say 'songs from the little well-known to the more obscure' is where I'm coming from so I suppose these tunes rarely get an outing so here's the play-out they deserve.

ARTIST .......................... TRACK
Fleetwood Mac ................. Dr Brown
Nic Jones .......................... Swimming Song
ZZ Top ............................. Just Got Back From Baby's
Nick Drake ....................... Things Behind The Sun
Alexis Korner ................... How Long Blues
Etchingham Steam Band .. Hard Times of Old England
L'il Son Jackson ............... Roberta Blues
Lindisfarne ....................... Meet Me On The Corner
Una Mae Carlisle ............. Hangover Blues
Bagpuss ........................... The Millers' Song
Mississippi John Hurt ...... Stack O' Lee Blues
Bob Dylan ........................ Don't Think Twice It's Alright
Tom Waits ....................... I Want You

And here are the piccies!

16 September 2014 - ALL UP!! could be an ALL done! Could be the Last Morris Round Up of the Year - but Jo Bonamassa et el will be playing tonight

Hi all

Yes it could be the last 'Morris Round Up' of the year as the Morris are wearing down from a summer of dancing and ready for a bit of a sit down and rest their bells until New Year's Day.  So more time for some quality folk and blues tunes.  This week I have the new single from Jo Bonamassa, Joanna Shaw Taylor and others ..see below.  Also regulars ' What's in the Post?' and maybe 'Time for Tom'  

ARTIST .................................... TRACK 
Jo Bonamassa ............................ Get Back My Tomorrow
Hold My Whisky ....................... Jane Kramer
Mr Duffle's Suitcase .................. One Strand Sea
Dave McGraw and Mandy Fer .. Morning Song
Half Deaf Clatch ........................ Hill County Rain
Catherine MacClellan ................ Beneath the Lindens
Sunjay ........................................ Drop Down Mama
Joanne Shaw Taylor .................. The Dirty Truth
Jane Kramer ............................... How Far am I From Canaan?'

And here are the piccies

9 September - No Morris Round Up !!!! All Up.... I think not .. but some quality tunes all the same I hope you'll find in this weeks show

Hi all

Yes I'm afraid no Morris Round Up in this week's show as the Morris are not out and about in big enough numbers to warrant a This Time, All Up and Walk Round!  So filling the gap from not meeting your morrissing needs are more folk and blues tunes from the mail bag that lies within 'What's in the Post?'
